1930 Hot Rod Ford Model A Street Rod Rat Rod on 2040-cars
Roxboro, North Carolina, United States
For Sale is an extremely well done, just finished 1930 Model A rat rod style street rod. It is a real steel 1930 Ford body on a fully boxed custom frame. The body has a 5" chopped top and gorgeous copper pearl metallic paint with several coats of flat clear along with black stripping and a tan vinyl top. It was built with heat and ice cold A/C (vintage air system). It has power windows that are key fob operated remote control because the doors have shaved handles on the outside. All window glass on the car is factory bronze tinted which matches the color of the car better. Car also has tilt steering column, a stereo/dvd player with four speakers and all new gauges. Working front and rear turn signals with the front signals built into the headlights. The interior was just finished using tan/beige leather and brown ostrich inserts in dash and seats, along with embroidered hot rod emblems, reclining bucket seats with adjustable lumbar support. One of the coolest features of this build, is the full 5" chop giving it that perfect look, but we dropped the entire floor pan a full 2" to make it more practical for an everyday driver. This was accomplished without a transmission hump so the interior has a full flat floor to give it a lot more room. The rear seats can fit actual size human beings (teens) so it is truly a four passenger vehicle. The front seats have seat belts and the rear seats have 4 point harnesses for the safety of the kids. It also has a full length custom made ceiling console with LED lighting and under dash lighting to match. The entire car was built with safety in mind since I would be taking the kids with me to car shows. It has four-wheel disc brakes. A complete Pete and Jakes four bar front end kit with a steering dampener. The rear was custom fabricated at a racing/chassis shop. It is a triangulated four link set up with heavy duty supports for rock solid stability. It has fully adjustable billet alloy coil over shocks (11 position dampening adjustment so you can select your ride preference) with 300lb springs. They also fabricated a rear sway bar. All this chassis work lets the car handle and keeps it extremely flat and controlled while cornering. The whole point of the build was to be able to actually drive the car to the shows, from the back roads to the interstate. I have been in too many slapped together shoddy fabricated rods that were scary to drive not to mention not being built safe enough to put my kids in the back seat. The engine is a rebuilt 318 Chrysler out of a truck with a mild cam, mated to a 727 tranny with an Edelbrock 4-bbl carb. The engine runs great with no issues. It has plenty of torque and the transmission shifts smooth and crisp using a B&M ratchet shifter. It has a full custom set of twin lake style side pipes. The rear end is a Ford 8" with 2.93 gears so you can cruise the interstate at speed. There are tons of details on the car like the flush mount Harley Davidson fuel cap that pops out connected to an aluminum fuel cell. I'm sure I'm leaving out a lot more, but I can take detailed pics of what ever you want. Like I said, this has just recently been completed and is ultra clean from top to bottom and brand new underneath. The car is a blast to drive and gets tons of attention where ever it goes. Car has 650 miles on it since completion, have tons of receipts, part numbers and parts info The car is offered for sale at $25,000.00 OBO. I can be reached at 919-451-7680

I don't want to leave this out, and I am trying to add a picture, but before the rear sway bar was added, the body was allowed to come in contact with the rear tire and it rubbed the paint. No damage was done, just missing paint. The tires hide the spots completely, but wanted to say it was there. The rubbing occurred when I first had the over-sized rear tires on it. Once the sway bar was added, it completely eliminated body roll and no further rubbing occurred. I have since put on different tires and have had no problems since. |

Ford's new Focus RS hatches hot and heads for America
Tue, Feb 3 2015The hot hatch market is heating up, and heating up fast. What you see here is Ford's new challenger for pocket-rocket supremacy, the third iteration of the breed and the 30th model to wear the Rallye Sport designation. But perhaps best of all, it will be the first time Ford will offer a new Focus RS in America. Following yesterday's leak, the latest Ford Focus RS is now ready to step out into the light and light up its tires. Answering the call is the same 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbo four as you'd find in the new Mustang, but upgraded with a new low-inertia twin-scroll turbocharger, larger compressor and intercooler, freer-flowing intake, large-bore dual-pipe exhaust with electronically controlled valve and upgraded internal components. The result is a 6,500-rpm redline (closer to that of Ford's atmospheric performance engines) and an output quoted as "well in excess of 315 horsepower" – which is already 5 more than the EcoBoost Mustang and a good 63 more than the existing Focus ST. Power is transmitted to the tarmac through a new performance-focused all-wheel drive system with torque vectoring that can send as much as 70 percent of available twist to the rear wheels (and as much as 100 percent between them). The system works in tandem with the brake-based torque vectoring system and stability control, and will even divert torque to the outside rear wheel under cornering to keep it flat and under control while reducing understeer. Those still suspicious of dual-clutch gearboxes will also be pleased to read that Ford has stuck with a conventional six-speed manual. We'll reserve judgement on the inclusion of the electric power steering until we get a chance to drive it, though. Of course the small team of global Ford Performance engineers who developed the new Focus RS – and the Gymkhana legend Ken Block who consulted on the project – didn't just tinker with the powertrain and leave it at that. The suspension features stiffer spring rates, bushings and anti-roll bars than the Focus ST, augmented by two-mode switchable dampers. 19-inch alloys wear Michelin Pilot Super Sport rubber, with optional Pilot Sport Cup 2 semi-slicks for track-day enthusiasts. Ford has yet to detail the brakes on its new hot hatch, but you can bet they've been upgraded as well.
Ford, Petty's Garage to build limited-edition Mustang GT from SEMA Show
Fri, Feb 20 2015The customized vehicles on display at the annual SEMA Show are often just there to exhibit a company's wares. They are more an illustration of what's possible by picking the right bits out of a catalog, rather than a model available in complete form. Ford and Petty's Garage are doing something a little different, though, by putting a very limited run of the tuner's supercharged Mustang GTs up for order through Blue Oval dealers. The Petty's Garage Mustang GT made its debut with a host of other modded 'Stangs at the 2014 SEMA Show. It featured a blue-and-black two-tone paint job and a supercharged version of the pony car's V8 under the hood. Just 143 of them are now being offered to customers – 100 in Stage 1 trim and 43 in Stage 2 form. At a starting price of $62,210, Stage 1 buyers get the aggressive body kit from the show car, including a center-exit exhaust at the rear, trunk lip spoiler and a set of 20-inch wheels. Although the real meat of the setup is a supercharger, cold air intake and retuned engine calibration also help take the output up to 627 horsepower. Inside, customers get "The King" Richard Petty's signature on the dashboard. Shelling out $92,210 for the Stage 2 version adds bigger brakes from Wilwood, HRE three-piece wheels and the two-tone paint job from the SEMA show car. The boosted Mustangs can be ordered from Ford dealers, but at least one of the Stage 2 versions is already sold. Rocker and car enthusiast Brian Johnson of AC/DC bought the first one. FORD AND PETTY'S GARAGE TEAM UP TO BUILD LIMITED-EDITION MUSTANG GT Ford dealerships to offer 143 limited-edition Petty's Garage-tuned Mustang GTs; a Stage 1 version and an even more exclusive Stage 2 version will be available All Petty's Garage Mustang GTs feature Ford Racing/Roush supercharger boosting output to 627 horsepower*, as well as unique exterior and interior treatments including Richard Petty's signature on the dashboard AC/DC's Brian Johnson ordered the first Petty's Garage Stage 2 Mustang GT – the rock 'n' roll legend's first-ever domestic vehicle purchase DEARBORN, Mich., Feb. 19, 2015 – Ford Motor Company and Petty's Garage are teaming up to build a new 627-horsepower* Mustang GT – a limited-edition fastback inspired by the popular Petty's Garage Mustang GT on display at last year's SEMA show in Las Vegas. "We received a tremendous amount of positive feedback about our Petty's Garage Mustang GT displayed at the SEMA show," said Jeff Whaley, Petty's Garage COO.
Second part of Forza Horizon 3 car list revealed early
Tue, Jul 26 2016We previously brought you the first portion of Forza Horizon 3's list of 350 cars last week, and today we're bringing you part two. Apparently Fairfax Media in Australia had the list and images early and published them on The Sydney Morning Herald's website . We say early because the publication's story reveals that Playground Games, the developer of the game, plans to make the official announcement on the Forza website this Wednesday. This set of virtual machinery brings us closer to the full list, which will continue to be revealed over the coming weeks. While this part is smaller than the first one, it still features a number of notable automobiles, including the Bugatti EB110 Super Sport, GMC Syclone and Ferrari Dino 246 GT. This list also adds more vintage Aussie machines, including the very cool 1974 Holden "Sandman" HQ panel truck. Fans of the Mad Max movies may remember Max's Sandman truck from the original film. Check out the list of new cars from The Sydney Morning Herald below and take at look their article for new images and insight on what the developers' goals were for the game. 2007 Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione 1970 AMC Rebel "The Machine" 1998 Aston Martin V8 Vantage V600 2011 Audi RS 5 Coupe 2011 BMW X5 M 1981 BMW M1 1992 Bugatti EB110 Super Sport 1970 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 1966 Chevrolet Nova Super Sport 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR 1969 Ferrari Dino 246 GT 1968 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 2011 Ferrari FF 1978 Ford Mustang II King Cobra 1956 Ford F-100 1991 GMC Syclone 2016 Holden Special Vehicles GTS Maloo 1951 Holden 50-2106 FX Ute 1974 Holden Sandman HQ panel van 2012 Infiniti IPL G Coupe 2015 Jaguar XFR-S 1997 Lamborghini Diablo SV 2014 Lamborghini Urus 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged 2005 Lotus Elise 111S 2013 Mazda MX-5 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II 2013 Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR 2000 Nissan Silvia Spec-R 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 2010 Renault Megane RS 250 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STi Related Video: News Source: The Sydney Morning HeraldImage Credit: Playground Games/Microsoft Auto News Bugatti Ford GMC Holden Technology video games forza motorsport forza horizon 3
